About Me

I'm a rookie writer enjoying the flow of words sprouting out of my fingers. Sometimes it goes easy, at other times it's a real struggle. I love and crave any kind of feedback, good or bad.
I write when I can, but a husband, two kids, 4.2 cats (aging from 15 years to 4 months) do take up most of my time.
Yet I found the time to try out something I never thought I was good at. I started writing. I came to love it and enjoy the new friendships I've made with fellow writers I simply adore (well I like the writers, but adore their work *grins*)

he's a bad bad man. he's the head of his clan. during a meeting the "servant" girl catches his eye, which is already unbecoming of him, he has learned himself to be ignorant of others but this girl. he can't put his finger on it. as his host offers for her to "service" him, he doesn't blink an eye. when he's offered to have sex with her, he's still able to school his features but he's made up his mind. the girl's been offered and he plans on taking his host up on that offer, even going a step further and keeping her, indefinitely. Fawn doesn't know what is happening to her, learned to shut up and do as she's told, she just goes along as the big hulking and tattooed man drags her along, out of the house, into a fancy car and drives to his own home. she knew her "boyfriend" dealt with dangerous men and she knew this one was one of them. she was afraid she got traded from one brute to another. his calm demeanor not giving away any of his feelings or thoughts, yet there was something about him. after offering her a clean shirt and the other side of his bed, she was surprised that he didn't want anything. the day after he send a girl to go shopping with her. that same day he announces she is free to go, that he won't keep her but that isn't counting on her feelings. he gives her one chance to change her mind : "if we go further, you are mine!" hoping she'd listen to his warning, she did the opposite, she used it as an invitation. and thus their roller coaster journey started with a lot of passion. but how long will passion last when you have taken and claimed another's man woman as your own? he's a mob boss and he promised her nothing could ever harm her...

this is such a contrasting story that gives so much insight at the inner turmoil Vasile is having from the moment he has set eyes on Fawn. his desire to have her, his desire to keep her safe but also his need to see her happy even at the cost of his own feelings. will Fawn be strong enough to stand up to him and claim what is hers and hers alone? there are some gruesome scenes but what else would you expect from a book where the leading man is the mob boss? not daisies and butterflies!! but a good read that doesn't have hang up and keeps flowing. i had to read it in one go, just couldn't put it down.

an emotional read. that both leads are male doesn't really matter to the conflict at the core of this story, but then again some M/m sexytime is never a bad thing to read *winks*

what a predicament they are in. drawn to each other romer and jessa are a bit lost as how to proceed. jessa is very clearly bearmarked, only her "mate" has up and left her with no means to find him apart from his name. romer is fighting his bear as much as he can because it's screaming that jessa is theirs but knowing she's marked that is a big no no. will they ever find a way to make things work? it's a thrilling ride to see how romer and jessa make due. how the others are rooting for them. it's also nice to get an update on them as well. this is a stand alone story that you can read on your own. enough is told not feel left out if you haven't read book 1. reading book will always add to the depth of the whole story so if you can : grab them both!!

four stars, simply due to the fact i have to "wait" till the next part to keep on reading.this book has a solid story line. it's fast paced and sucks you in. you know there is more to her then she's letting on and you literally have to wait till the last page to find out why!so much is happening for all parties involved, it's nail-biting while reading the next chapter and the next and the next!

nine months it has been since she actually socialized, nine months since losing a battle that killed people. now a self proclaimed recluse, libby, is guilted into going out on halloween. little did she expect to run into handsome Jay. Jay on the other hand has been anxious to meet her, having her friend set up a bit of a blind date. what he didn't expect was for libby to be his true mate. it's hard on them not to give into their attraction but when they do, that's when all hell breaks loose!!how they will solve that, is up to you to find out. i loved every minute of this book , good and bad times! the anguish near the end is just ... aargh heartbreaking.

i will not review each book on it's own, that'd be too much to read. however this is a nice collection of books to introduce to you some good authors. you get your money's worth with this anthology. well worth having and reading!!

this is a short but whirl-winding read. i "only" gave it three starts because i strongly belief that if the story was fleshed out more this would rise to be a superb story. the premise is there, the lovemaking and attraction is there, the conflict and drama is all there. it's just that i felt a little bit cheated out of a fuller story with so many things that have been told.i liked the story and for as short a read as it was, it did cover almost everything to have a decent HEA.

this fast paced read is a really awesome read. the contrast in characters is real but it just works in this fictive world.a must read for those loving bears and menages!!

three stars, it could easily go up to 4 or five if some things were touched up. formatting could be a bit better so it's easier to read.here and there were a few issues with inconsistencies. there were a lot of opportunities within the story to give it a lot more depth.it are all major factor i keep in mind when reading, HOWEVER the core of the story, build up etc is there. i would read it again and enjoy the personal torment our leading man has to go through before deciding who and what is best for him and his bear.

i'm glad i got the chance to read all the parts together. if i had to wait for the next part i would have been a grumpy person till the next part!!it was a real roller-coaster of emotions. once you start on the first part you just have to know how it continues.girls are growing up together in a boarding school type of environment. they're divided into groups -on paper- as to which shifter group they would be perfect brides to. one such girls is doing her best not to be chosen, she wants to be free and would go that extra mile to get her freedom. days before she planned her escape in strolls Max and gone are her plans. he's instantly intrigued by the curvaceous woman with reddish blond hair. he can't help but admire her spunk and attitude as she brushes of their conversation.happy for her friends to be chosen for interviews, Avelyn is more then surprised when she's called in for an interview as well. when she sees it's the same man she met earlier, she's a bit confused. she'd hoped her behavior would have made it clear she had no interest in becoming a bride. but it seems that no matter what she says of does as just the opposite effect. seeing her escape plans fall apart she just has to try, with the help of her roommates she plots a swift escape. once loose in the big dark forest behind the school she starts to feel hopeful she has made it. that is until she's convinced she's being watched, and how right she was. Max set two guardians on her tail to watch over her. defeated, she lets them bring her back to the school. tired as she is, she can't put up a fight any longer and just goes with the flow, even when Max arrives early in the morning to bring her to his home. once settled, she's confined to their room, alone with her thoughts and one maid the visits often and takes care of her meals.it's then she decides she's still not ready to give up her freedom and starts plotting a new plan to escape.

i wonder if at that moment she would have know what her plan would set in motion, she would have made the same choices. her plan certainly didn't work out as planned, not for her, nor for Max and his clans. nor for the other people that help them.

Those that pop in from time to time know I've started to re-post cleaned up chapters of Nick through FB. They'll stay up for a few weeks after I've posted the last chapter of that book. Then it's on to Chris' story. Once more, posting one chapter a week and chapters stay available for a bit after last chapter went live. Then it's on to Adam's. I won't post those chapters because they're still up on the blog and Literotica, I will add the new chapters as I go further with their story and link accordingly.

As for Ed's story, I'm still doubting but it will be more likely I will keep that to the blog only, hopefully with enough written to keep up a nice schedule for the rough draft.

There will be a prologue story and once I start that one I'll be starting to take down the free reads from SIW because I'll be starting the final stage for publishing.

If you want to be part of the process, I still have room for beta readers. If interested reply here or send me a pm via FB. If you're familiar with my work : YAY, if not : YAY. A fresh pair of eyes is always welcome!

I'm also setting up a new newsletter, not intended to spam you twenty-five a day but to keep you updated with my progress. You can sign up through the blog or through my FB-page. I'm not sending out much at the moment because I'm busy cleaning up Chris' story, getting my research data back in order (I lost everything...) and I'm looking into covers and I'm trying to find a good editor and and and... So many things things to do!!

we join Irene once more as she goes back to the bar where she met Rashid. she doesn't just find him but also Oliver, his vampire "boyfriend". curious as to why Oliver is so obsessed with her music, she's easily convinced with a wager when Oliver claims to have music written by her hand but is still unfinished. going back to Oliver's place she's more then surprised to see how much of her sheet music he actually has. it's not the most recent ones either, the ones Rashid is playing in the bar, but pieces that go back centuries!

this part is a heartfelt telling of why Oliver is so much into her music as much as it is story about Irene accepting that her music, no matter how personal, is out there for others to hear. also Irene giving in to her need to "have" Rashid once more and to taste his very blood.

I'm really curious how they will eventually end up being? this is a story with a lot of soul-searching and acceptance.
